Do not store in diluted form. The product is not flammable.

Spills and Disposal: The product is soluble and can be flushed away or dispersed by dilution with water. As a soil conditioner it can simply be washed into soil as a safe means of dispersion. The material concentrate can become malodorous if diluted with water and left in surface pockets because dilution will raise pH and allow bacterial action to proliferate.

Alternatively the product can be absorbed with sawdust or similar material and disposed of in soil or as refuse. Disposal: Poses no problem for disposal by dispersion in soil or landfill because of its soil conditioning properties.

Fire Explosion/Hazard: As a non-flammable, non-explosive liquid substance will not burn due to high moisture percentage. Could be used to retard/suppress fire in emergency.
